It is shown by direct calculations that in a superconductor with a slightly violated d-wave symmetry of the order parameter (OP) the impurity driven phase transition from the gapless superconductivity to a state with a finite gap takes place at zero temperature. The corresponding scattering rate is close to the value at which the superconductivity vanishes in the d-superconductor. The behavior of the transition temperature, the OP and the density of states (DOS) is analyzed. The model is plausibly relevant to the BSCCO 2:2:1:2.

The zero-temperature superfluid (SF)–Bose glass (BG) transition in the strongly correlated (U=∞) Bose Hubbard model in d dimensions driven by disorder in hopping is studied using a simple analytic technique. The transition is identified as the point at which the density of states for local rotations of phase of the superfluid order parameter is enhanced at the lowest energies. This identification leads to the values ν=2/d and z=d/2 for the correlation length and dynamical exponents, respectively, by an approximation calculation of the low-energy density of states for large d. At the transition, the singular part of the compressibility κ vanishes, so κ is finite.
